Duration: P00H03M27S
Description: The Kite (Sunset Mix). Our Side A third song was lifted from the 2020 full-length album Friday Night. Our sixth full- length release managed to have two songs end up on this album. And although this track didn’t score as high it makes an earlier appearance here simply because it’s the more uptempo of the two. Other versions of this song: The Kite

lyrics

I - get lost
Every time I hear that name
I get nervous
The walls close in
I’m all kite in the wind

I - can’t find
A place where I fit it
Close my eyes
Watch her walking
I’m all kite in the wind

Kite in the wind
Until she comes to reel me in
Just a kite in the wind
Nothing more …

I - have tried
Time and time again
The halls are haunted
And I can’t breathe
I’m all kite in the wind

All - this time
Path was not in vain
Dreams don’t die
They just keep on truckin’
And I’m all kite in the wind

Kite in the wind
Until she comes to reel me in
Just a kite in the wind
Nothing more …

Kite in the wind
Until she comes and reels me in
Just a kite in the wind
Nothing more … nothing more

Kite in the wind
Until she comes and reels me in
Just a kite in the wind
Nothing more …

Kite in the wind
But will she come to reel me in
Just a kite in the wind
Nothing more … nothing more …nothing more … nothing more
